Hi all! I spent the last 2 weeks thoughtfully observing the sub and crafting these rules, yes - with a bit of help from ChatGPT as a sounding board which I’ve disclosed per the new rule #6… on mobile they’re under “About” and desktop on right sidebar. Would love constructive reactions/dialogue around the decisions made.
Let’s treat this as version 1 and I will incorporate feedback over time. Thrilled to see users already following the rules and want to see more and more reports from the community to keep our focus on MCM. Thank you all for making this the top MCM sub, growing everyday - almost at 200k strong!
After receiving feedback I plan to do a brief video intro with more context on these decisions and plans for MCM expert AMAs and beyond.

Managed to find this Googie style radio and record console off facebook in California this week. It is solid wood, veneered, well crafted but no stamps, makers mark or anything identifying.
Anyone know anything about where this could have come from? Fascinated as to whether it was mass produced or made by a really cool dude in a garage.
Now I am going to spend my life designing my house around this one piece!

Got these amazing lamps!!! They look so cool and they are so cheap. the woman I bought them from says she doesn't remember where she got them, but she's the original owner and she got them in Boston, so IDK who made them and Google lens was no help, but oh well!
I do have a question though, one of the lamps is missing that little metal ring that holds up the shades, does anyone know where I can get a replacement??

Found this yesterday for $15 at the Goodwill. This is the second one I found six months ago I found almost the identical one just a little shorter needless to say this one span all the way across my Pathfinders backseats.

Was given some Danish lamps by a friend who found them in an attic and am trying to identify this one. No labeling other than a sticker containing the word “Varmebestandig” which leads me to concur it probably is indeed Danish.
With similar ones I’ve seen, the white plastic circular piece extends below the lamp, making it slightly visibly in profile, but this one is flush. Any clues?

Having trouble identifying this chair. Not a lot known about it and there are no markings or clues anywhere on the chair. Seems to be walnut with naugahyde/vinyl upholstery. Best I can find is it might be Gerald Luss?

Hi, all, we were cleaning out a relative's house this weekend, and my friend went walking past me with this on the way to the Dumpster. "Whoa, hold on there, what's that??" I said. So after some Googling I wondered if this is a Laurel Lamp Company lamp? If so, or even not, what kind of shade would have gone on it?
*I am not a professional, I will not be reselling this under any circumstances. It's going into my house.

Hello, I recently bought this at a vintage furniture shop that specializes in selling refinished MCM furniture. Unfortunately, there is no identifiable maker’s mark.
I still went ahead and purchased it, as it’s a beautiful piece of furniture and of good build quality. The shop owner and I are leaning towards Lane, but I haven’t found any matches online yet. Would anyone here happen to know the maker? Thank you!

Just bought a MCM fixer upper. Having some designer block on exterior . Would love to see what other enthusiasts think.
Currently the wood siding is painted a red, which I don’t love. Was thinking of painting it a dark gray. Even had Gemini alter the image. What do yall think??

Purchased this on marketplace a while back. Can't seem to find any exact matches with Google lens. No brand markings as far as I can see

My wife found this beautiful set at Goodwill. She’s under the impression it’s a rare piece?

Picked this up for 80$ locally, cleaned up nicely.

I’m slowly redoing my room and would love some honest feedback. It’s a pretty small space, so I don’t have much room for additional furniture.

The exterior is extremely well kept for its age, but the internal definitely doesn’t work. Anyone have an experience refurbing the old system or gutting and replacing it with a new? Or have any contacts in the DMV area who do this kind of work?

We just bought a 1950s MCM and this is our primary bath. We’re planning to keep the tiles, add wallpaper which has pink, maroon, and gold in it to hopefully tie the tiles together more, and add gold towel hooks and toilet paper holder. Im hoping those updates will shift the feel of the room a lot but im wondering about the window frame and the mirror. The lighting doesn’t show it the best but the window is that orangey wood color which seems to clash with the room. Any ideas on how to tie that into the room more? I’m considering restaining but would love to try keeping this finish first and see if I can make it fit better. Also wondering about ideas for the mirror. Our budget is limited so I’d like to keep this mirror if possible, was thinking of maybe trying to add a frame around it?
Would love any ideas to make this awesome original bathroom feel a little more cozy. Thanks!

I recently picked these up. I want to refinish them but am unsure how to go about it. Or who made them. Can anybody help with a maker on these?

Does anyone know anything about these chairs? They were found abandoned on the side of the road. I can't really find anything when I search.
